Ahoy guys, I am still working sometimes on the D-ECJB livery and also recognised this glitch. And it is possible to make it 'invisible' by editing the livery. See screenshot, picture [1]. However, I am not sure if this is the right way to solve this issue. I am planning to draw details like the sheeding below the windshield, like the one on picture [2], and I am not sure if this will be easy with the current mapping. To look at the future, I am not sure if there is any c172p painting out there which will make the way into FG *and* uses this part of the aircraft, but if so, drawing this would be quite hard. OTHO, redoing all the existing liveries will take some effort. Well, this was 'just to say' and if the decision is just editing the liveries I'll adapt this to the other liveries and send them to Heiko(?).
